Mickey X Formula 1 Racing to the Top! follows Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy as they support a racing team in crisis. The story blends the teamwork and competitive intensity of Formula 1 with Disney’s established character dynamics.
The project is part of Disney and Formula 1’s ongoing multi-year “Fuel the Magic” collaboration, which combines racing culture with character-driven storytelling and themed fan experiences at race events worldwide. The 2026 campaign will begin in Melbourne before expanding to additional stops, including the Chinese Grand Prix.
The collaboration also coincides with new global licensed merchandise launches for the 2026 race season, including products from Disney Store, Gentle Monster, and additional trackside collections.
